M-1 Light Rail

For this project, we were contracted to perform a complete topographic design survey for the first phase of the M-1 Light Rail project covering over 3.4 miles of Woodward Avenue from Jefferson Avenue to West Grand Boulevard.

A combination of 3D laser scanning and conventional survey methods was used. Topographic features found within the project limits were collected in the office by our HDS Technicians from the point clouds.Read more link

Our team of experts also inventoried utilities from the point cloud and verified the data via field check. Some of the features located from the scan data were curb, gutter, edge of metal, lane lines, centerline of road, overhead utilities, storm, sanitary, telephone, cable, buildings, overhangs and water services.
